Just wondering if anyone has notice that when you drive your skyline on the road, alot of people come up ur arse at the light for the fun of it. Normal roads for me is fine i hate it when I am on a hill and they do it. Its like they want me to roll back and hit them.

Just seeing if anyone else usually have that happening to them. I drive my other car which is a 2006 model camry and no one come up my back side in the skyline they do it all the time.

Especially P platers!!! Nothing against p plates its just they are the majority of them of them that come up my back side for the fun of it.

Give me your opinion?!

hehe you said a funnyy..

On a serious note, yes you will get dickheads constantly even including undercover cops trying to stir you up. The trick is to act with maturity and you won't have any trouble. It's part of the price you pay for driving a high performance vehicle.

Just sit back and smile and enjoy your ride.

Lol...although RB25PWR isn't undercover.

Yep, it happens...a lot. I can't remember the last time a local V8 with an exhaust was near me without trying to drag me. P-platers LOVE to race. Police don't seem to bat an eyelid down here though, perhaps my skin isn't olive enough?

I had some fool trying to get me to pull over last time. Oh yeah that's likely to happen.

Also got road raged, there was a freak rain storm and then all cars on the highway had to come to a grinding stop due to a dog on the road. Haha all these fun events in no particular order, was an eventful drive up last time!

Try being a chick in a GTR. I hate driving up the highway to Sydney by myself, people carry on a bit silly!

Not trying anything here, but a girl in a GTR = hawt. If my girlfriend drove a GTR, I'd marry her the moment the rego went into her name.

But as a general thing, I don't get people being idiots. It's actually quite the opposite. I have a lot of people take of REALLY slowly at lights so they don't G me up for a race or something like that.

I've been having a lulz at it, telling friends "they're taking off slower than the green p-plater hoon in a skyline so they can sit back and bitch about how bad of a driver I am". Even though I'm shifting at 2500 and taking it chill.

My opinion of an idiot on the road is someone who's putting other peoples life directly at risk. Ripping a burnout or trying to drift in an industrial area on a weekend or at night isn't too bad when you've got friends all around you managing the pedestrians, but turning your headlights off at night and almost forcing a car off the road is being a total f**king wank.

And Skyline drivers don't general attract wankers. Infact, in Sydney, I've met plenty of extremely enthusiastic and friendly Skyline drivers. It's commodore drivers that have been giving me the shits recently.

Good looks are a blessing and a burden.

You know, you're just going about your daily life, trying to get on with driving or work or what ever and BAM women everywhere.

For example, see figure 1.

Terry your car is blue now?

Often im driving normally an as soon as i give the slightest throttle ( just a bit of spooling) people feel the need to gun it lol.

i think theyre idiots, "im not racing you, if i was you would NOT be in front or alongside or anywhere near me" lol

PS To all you Camry/Magna/Commodore wagon owners: i behave on roads an enjoy my car on track, nor do i need to prove my car is faster than your shopping trolley

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
